In the Chinese countryside of the last century, wells dug by oneself can be found everywhere. The protagonist of this incident is a well. This is a "special" well, also known as the only well in China that "sees the eyes of money", and once someone throws a coin into it, strange things will happen. Why does this well "see the money in the eyes"? Let's move on.
China has thousands of years of history and civilization, and in this long river of history, there are countless unsolved mysteries waiting for mankind to reveal the answers. In the city of Wuwei in China's Gansu Province, there is a famous attraction called "Leitai Han Tomb".
It is reported that this attraction has a history of more than 1,700 years, and the famous historical relics "Ma Ta Fei Yan" statue was excavated here. According to relevant records, this thunder platform, the earliest is the former Liang king Zhang Mao, sent people to build the Lingjun platform, in this thunder platform, distributed more than a dozen ancient buildings, looks very majestic.
But what is unexpected is that in 1969, when the local air raid shelter was being built, a mausoleum from the Eastern Han Dynasty was found under this thunder platform. After the local archaeologists learned of this, they rushed to the site of the tomb and carried out rescue excavations of the tomb. Subsequently, archaeologists unearthed a large number of precious historical relics in the ancient tomb. In addition, experts also found a very strange well in this ancient tomb. Curious experts threw the coins they carried with them into the well, trying to measure the depth of the well. I never thought that the coin thrown into the well, with the naked eye, actually had the effect of being magnified.
The construction of a well in the ancient tomb, which is rare in archaeological discoveries, and this well, is actually a well that "sees the eyes of money", which makes experts even more curious! In order to unveil the mystery of this well, archaeologists conducted a careful investigation and study of the environment around this well, and finally found the truth of the well's "see money eyes".
Experts found that the well, built in the tomb, is not a common vertical well, its wall is made of ancient thin bricks from the Han Dynasty, the diameter of the wellhead is less than one meter, the diameter of the bottom of the well is smaller than the wellhead, and the diameter of the middle section of the ancient well is 1.15 meters. This structure of narrow middle width above and below makes something have an amplified effect after falling into the well, which is explained by the scientific method, that is, the refraction effect of light. Why did the ancients use this structure when building this well? Why such a well was built in the cemetery needs to be further studied by archaeologists.
